It is a month since Hamas launched its unexpected and brutal attack on Israel. More than 1,400 Israelis were killed in the assault, and more than 240 were taken hostage, according to a count by Israeli officials. The Hamas-run Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip says more than 10,000 Palestinians have died in the military campaign launched in response by Israel.
I don’t know, that doesn’t seem like much of a war. Seems like one side is clearing out the other.

It’s a war between terrorists using human shields and a country tired of hearing the world telling them to just keep taking shit from said terrorists without retaliating.
Stop spreading your disinformation, and check https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties. If only you were capable of critical thinking, here we are talking about thousands of civilian lives lost, and utter destruction and suffering inflicted on the civilian population.
Ah yes, insult me more that will definitely get your point across. Not to mention the only thing you people care about is death counts as statistics. As long as the rockets don’t kill anyone, they’re a-okay to be shooting them at civilians.
Don’t you see what is happening in Gaza? Do you think there people are living the life? Maybe for a moment try to put yourself in their shoes. How would you feel? Seriously!
And I only question your ability of critical thinking which isn’t exactly an offence. Plus I provided a link for you to check the numbers. And if you truly believe numbers don’t matter, could you try to explain to me how come 165K Palestinians have been injured and another 6K have been killed since 2007, and on the other side of the spectrum, 300 killed and 6000 injured and all this considering that the military wing of Hamas is 30K.
You can also check Wikipedia, the UN, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and countless more human rights watchdogs, who also seem to disagree with you. Heck there are even Israeli websites who are occasionally writing about https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-groups-slam-plan-to-expel-human-rights-watch-rep/

Yes, that’s very easy to explain. One side has a focus on protecting its citizens, designing systems to help keep their casualties down despite tens of thousands of rockets fired at their cities. The other side doesn’t give a shit about their civilians, instead using them as human shields to conduct their operations under.
That’s how you end up with that discrepancy.
You realise those 165K are injured by the IDF, and don’t you find it a bit disproportionate? Like 27 times more injured. And please do not tell me that you consider all those 165K Palestinians to be all terrorists, as I said before only 30K are supposed to be associated with Hamas’ military wing.
And what about the human violations topic, the illegal settlements, the impunity of IDF soldiers and settlers. How many of those had been given effective sentences for killing or injuring unprovoked Palestinians?
Or actively targeting journalists, expelling human rights activists, trying to discredit the UN, etc. Does this sound to you very democratic? Because in my eyes it is quite the opposite. You know there was a member of your parliament who was calling for dropping a nuclear bomb over Gaza, so he got removed from the government but he wasn’t brought to court or actively investigated. And guess what will happen if someone from Palestine suggests the same. This guy will be killed, his home bulldozed and it would be widespread condemnation, etc.
This I call double standards!
